Question marked as
Apple does not offer a backup to iCloud for macOS.
Desktop and documents can be shared, but that's definitely not a backup.
Local Time Machine backups can be to an attached HDD or SSD, or to network attached storage on your local network.
The latter avoids having to connect the storage, as it will work while connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
The Network Attached Storage must support the Apple Time Machine protocol. Synology offers NAS that do support that, among other vendors.
There are other vendors that offer backup apps, as well.
